Branching Out

I received a small package from Grandma yesterday that contained a knitting pattern for a circular dishcloth and a sample dishcloth she made. I think it's her way of telling me I'm stuck in a rut using the same patterns over and over again. It's not my fault that I'm up to six pregnant friends and constantly have a burp cloth or baby bib on my needles!
